Minneapolis City Council President Lisa Bender.
CAMEROTA: "What if in the middle of the night my home is broken into. Who do I call?"

Just take away the 911 operators to start. That will probably be enough to shorten this experiment down to a punchline of a demented joke.
This is the new Minneapolis Public Safety Network. Our social workers are available from 9 to 5, Monday to Friday. Please leave a message and a social worker will call during business hours.
The Minneapolis Police department website is already pretty much gone. Multiple Captchas just to get in and I still haven’t got in.

These people are so stupid they don’t deserve to keep on breathing. I am surprised their nervous system keeps them inhaling and exhaling.
Minneapolis please be strong and resolute and dismantle your police force as soon as possible. This is gonna be epic. Especially when the councillors get lynched.
Honestly, I’m surprised the councillors haven’t been taken into custody by the men in blue, who now have nothing to lose.
To stop this, all the cops have to do is carry out petits coups d’état—arrest and suspend city councils unable or unwilling to let the law be enforced, and form a provisional government until order is restored and an election for a new council can be held free from ethnic and globalist interference.
Free the Minneapolis Four. Offer each one a seat on the Provisional City Council of Minneapolis, if he wants it.
I think the Minneapolis police should all call in sick complaining of COVID symptoms. 14 days with no police should be interesting.
When the time comes I think I might look on the interweb for some of their CCTV and get some popcorn.
The politicians will still have protection
Protection can be removed. Issue a police emergency standing order that anyone protecting these councillors is aiding and abetting criminal activity, and will be held accountable. Resistance will be met with force.
I think at this point, who, exactly, would arrest the police for arresting these councillors?
The disarmed National Guard?
Throwing the baby out with the bath water??
Ah the old unintended consequences again.
Strong in them the cognitive dissonance is.
They know there is something wrong with getting rid of the police force, they just can’t quite put their finger on it.
You know if someone had the foresight back when the US constitution was being written they would have put something in there to ensure the government was forbidden from making it against the law to protect yourself. You know some kind of protection that includes every citizen’s right to be armed, or something.
Fire all the cops.
Go ahead.
See how beloved politicians really are.
Nostradumbazz predicts legislatures and city halls across the land would soon be sprouting guillotines showcasing that love.
I might even take up knitting.
The cops will get jobs in private security or other jurisdictions.
The politicians will spend money on adult diapers or just get outta Dodge.
The fire department and paramedics may get some nasty shit thrown onto their plate.
“Can’t we all just get along?”
Nope.
The good cops will get jobs in privare security. What is more likely is that many of the good cops will join the organised crime syndicates these out of work cops will form. This is what happened in places like the former Yugoslavia, South Africa and Russia.
Oh what, you thought the cops would just agree to a 60% pay cut and quietly go off to get a job kneeling to blacks as a Walmart greeter?
lol…
Ex-cops make the PERFECT Cartel enforcers. They are excellent gunrunners and of course, they make pretty good hitmen.
As LatAm has shown, in a lot of cases, you can elect socialist politicians, but at the end of the day, it is dirty cops and Cartels that run the country.
Oh, and did I mention that they typically lynch sexual deviants and socialists that get in their way?
Better start saving money for bribes and ransoms.
Can’t wait for RoboCop.
What you will get is CartelCop.
What you had before will turn out WAY BETTER than what you are going to get now.
And just wait till some cops flip out completely, and do some crazy ISIS-style revenge hits on Democrats …
Fun times ahead.
Headen towards armagedden. Forgive the bad rhyme.
Why do nutbars have such low standards?
I’ve always found it interesting that when someone goes postal, they usually try to take out a bunch of regular slobs just like their self.
If it’s change you’re looking for, taking out the Parliament buildings would probably get better results than taking out the local barber.
If it’s revenge, you would think they would look at the people running things and screwing everybody.
And offing celebrities will get you more notoriety.
Crazies like convenience too I guess.
Sir, you win the internet. Never understood why bin Laden and ISIS types went after working stiffs.
If they whacked someone like Pelosi or Trudeau, who would give a shit? I know I wouldn’t.
Guy Fawkes?
Heh. Best tweet regarding this mess.
“911 what is your location?”
“Uh, a place of privilige”
This is really the Chicago model, no?
I’m confused. Is this the stupidest thing I’ve read on the internet today, or is it Tom Arnolds’s “Let’s borrow our Dad’s guns”?
No counterbalance. Whst would the cop haters suggest is an appropriate sentence issued by a judge (what a joke) for resisting arrest? Also, define very clearly for the cops what resisting arrest is. Msybe include obstruction.
Leftist retards don’t understand a very fundamental principle. The police doesn’t exist to protect law abiding citizens from criminals. It exists to protect criminals from law abiding citizens. Remove the police and you end up with vigilantes, and vigilantes don’t arrest criminals. They lynch them. If your vigilantes are mobbed up, i.e. Sicilian or Calabrian, then some artistic knife work might be thrown in for free. The death rate for black criminals will skyrocket.
True.
“If your vigilantes are mobbed up, i.e. Sicilian or Calabrian, then some artistic knife work might be thrown in”
I’m sure the Italians would do a thriving protection business. And as said, they wouldn’t arrest anyone. I doubt many blacks would venture out of black neighborhoods. An encounter with the Italian-American justice system won’t lead to one civil rights complaint.
The fun fact?
When the payers of “protection” decide at some day in the future that they no longer need the providers services, the provider advises them.
“Naw, youse needs ta keep payin da protection in case sumptin bad happens, like sumbuddy boinin youse badness ta da ground …. if youse know wad I mean”
Don’t forget the other side of the coin: those underprivileged, persecuted blacks and self-identified victims of society currently rioting and looting at will (to protest the injustice of it all, of course), will quickly get the idea that their mobs can better protect neighbourhoods than the incurably racist, predominately white (well, if you count in Uncle Toms) police force. If the police are disbanded, expect to see several rich, privileged suburban neighbourhoods to get looted and burned. Their fellows will be given a choice: pay up to local de-facto mob bosses to keep your privileged sanctuaries safe. Complain, and be made an example.
Then wait for the established Mafia and organized crime syndicates have “discussions” with the new kids on the block. Chicago 1920s anyone?
However unlikely this may sound, Bender has got her head firmly stuck up her ass, see nothing, hear nothing.
This is what happens when somebody goes to school for a long time doing studies on everlasting life of a flee.
To call police if your home is invaded by a criminal is a privilege, so sez she.
It would be interesting to see her house being invaded and she not taking advantage of her white privilege.
Maybe she does not need to worry, living in gated place with security guards, she can talk stupid hours and hours.
There is coming a time when the gated places are going to be the targets of those that want their stuff.
They are gonna come and get it.
Then it will be too late.
The plan, apparently, is to fiddle the cops out of their pensions, to cover the money squandered on “social service” programs for years, and in 2020 thrown away after the city shut down during the Wuhan flu scare.
(Police unions are among the very few not approved of by globalists.
With few exceptions, police unions are not mob- or globalist-controlled. Moreover, because police work can rarely be outsourced, the police unions are actually able to get a better deal for their members than they could otherwise get from skinflint city governments more interested in using tax money to buy votes and line their own pockets.
This makes police work one of the few jobs still open to white men without a university indoctrination that, for now, still pay well and guarantee the worker a good life in retirement.)
Those “social service” programs, of course, didn’t work as promised, weren’t needed (the churches had charity for the truly needy covered), and were only effective in buying votes for left-wing politicians.
The police union, if it took the power the city councillors refuse to wield, could easily find ways to “end poverty” in Minneapolis—by strictly enforcing the law free from interference by elected troublemakers, and driving the workshy and criminal element out of the city.
Oh, and they’d get to keep their pensions.
Defund the Police is simply another transfer of wealth from a group of people who lean conservative to groups of radical leftists. This has become a strategy of all the loudest whiners and complainers everywhere in our society. When I went to college … there was no “Office of Diversity” … but now … every single college in America has a growing bureau of Diversity. Each office receiving multi-millions in funding, with each employee receiving a generous 6-figure income.
So now … rather than raise taxes for a new Alt. Police Dept. … these Marxist wealth transferists … are going to TAKE funding away from the police … and redistribute those tens of millions … and hundreds of millions of dollars to Radical Black Activists. This is the EXACT SAME corporate shakedown of professional race-baiters; Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton et.al. who threaten to “expose” corporate racism … if not for a healthy “$$ donation” to these baiter’s “Foundations”
The Left have maneuvered their POWER to enrich their compatriots. A larger and larger portion of our taxes go into the pockets of hardcore activists in our government. San Francisco budgets $200M/yr. for Homeless “Services”. That money can buy a personal toilet for each and every homeless defecator in SF. But that’s not where it goes. It goes into the pockets of leftist homeless activists … who spend most of their time advocating for MORE $$$
Dear Mx Bender,
They aren’t going to eat you last.
Yet life has a great synchronicity.
You just know that one of these virtue signaler par excellence Darwin Award candidates are screaming to the gods to be a victim of their very own idiocy.
They may very well be eaten first.
With any luck.
I’ve always been an advocate for defunding and dismantling the fire deptartment so she and I have found some common ground.
From Evergreen to Minneapolis, in three short years.
Oh Kate, just wanted to say : another great title.
Further break down in the rule of law. This will not end well:
https://www.melaniephillips.com/america-revolutionary-society/
I think they think that getting rid of the police will get rid of crime. Truly insane.
I know. It’s not the police, it’s the laws. Get rid of the laws and there won’t be any “crime.” Just a lot more “freedom” than Ms. Bender and her ilk are going to like.
The cracks in the liberal facade are widening. I say let the pols crash every city they’ve owned.
Or.
Better lock and load Minneapolis folks. Your votes are about to have consequences.
It cannot be a coincidence that her name is Bender.
She really doesn’t care as she has police protection. The irony.
Somewhere … in a sunny room, overlooking a golf course, former President Barrack Hussein Obama has a self-satisfied smile … observing that he successfully “transformed” Minneapolis with just a handful of Somali “refugees”.
The cancer cells have been planted. They are everywhere throughout RED State. America. Sad.
You can bender, but you can’t arrester.
It’s so fortunate that we have arrived at this utopian age without criminals, just in the knick of time since we won’t have police.
Wonderful how it all worked out. I can’t wait to see the details.
Unfortunately the kool-aid these councilors are drinking isn’t immediately lethal. The stuff they’re drinking merely causes a slow death from stupidity.
Causes a slow death from stupidity, unfortunately not always the death of the individuals committing the stupidity.
She is absolutely and completely correct but not for the reasons she “thinks”
Dissolve every police force in every Demoncrap city. Ring them with National Guard and State Police and let no one out. Let the libtards and turd worlders eat each other alive.
If you are a normal thinking person and you still live in one of these holes, it’s on you. The writing has been on the wall for a while and those fires you saw burning all weekend were the final signal to vacate.
All this “Black lives Matter” schtick omits the true “slavers”. Remember the Barbary Pirates? Muzzies, one and all. It’s why the US Navy and the USMC were formed. Muzzies, there’s probably a few on your street, losers. And frankly, I’d bet money it’s still going on in one way or another. The Chicoms are loving this. You’ll be learning Mandarin before long and supplying organs for CCP apparatchiks down the road, when they march in and take over, once you get rid of Trump. Big Picture folks, same for stupid Kan-eh-jians.
America’s real enemies are right here at home. Start with the Democrats, black or white and the LPOC/NDP/GREENS/BLOC here.
Don’t be a recyclable.
It’s why the US Navy and the USMC were formed.
The first major engagement between the USMC and the pirates is memorialized in the Marine Corps Hymn with the line:
“To the shores of Tripoli.”
John Batchelor interviewed the author of a book about that encounter and that interview is repeated from time to time. Many of the Navy officers who took part and survived fought against the British in the War of 1812.
What do you do if there are no police and someone breaks into your house in the middle of the night? Shoot the intruder then sell their carcass to the local pig farmer. It’s a lot better than having to wait on the police.
Under the “new and improved” policing policy … you would be charged with MURDER … with “special circumstances” triggering a public hanging. The “special circumstances”? You denied a needy person YOUR privilege. You denied a desperate fellow human the things you shockingly believe you “own”. You have not yet learned that “native peoples” of the world don’t believe in “private property”. Your colonialist notion of white-ownership is simply disgusting. You should be stripped of all your “possessions” … and redistribute them to those in “need”.
For example, I saw a video this morning of a large group of melanin-men busting the window of a Paris Jimmy Choo shoe store. These righteous refugees had to “struggle” for their “right” to wear Jimmy Choo shoes. They have been systematically DENIED designer shoes because of the white man’s construct of “math” and “money”. These are confining constructs that arbitrarily apportion “wealth” to conformists. This has caused “artists” to struggle, which has diminished their art and driven the world into a struggle of greed and avarice.
Hey! All you leftist lives matter numbskulls! Writing this crap is so fkcuing easy! It takes no thought or analysis whatsoever. It just takes a lexicon of leftist buzzwords with dubious definitions… Brain salad surgery … like a frontal lobotomy
If police are going to be defunded, try it out first in Hollywood and publicize it really well.
Maybe provide free transportation for all the homeless in LA while you’re at it.
Yes! Transfer ALL the wealth and possessions of; Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Brentwood, Malibu, Pacific Palisades, Calibasis (where the Kardashians live) … into the hands of those who don’t have it.
Oh to be the owner of a gun shop in Minneapolis!
Is it too soon to put up my 4 x 8 “My Neighbor Hates Guns” sign?
He’s actually in the Armed Forces.
Probably a better shot than me.
I’m from the Gomer Pyle school of surprise.

This madness in some shape or form is sure to leach out across the border. Canadians are the biggest bunch of bandwagon jumpers on the planet. I’d put a hold on turning in your firearms to Blair. To those who so willingly acquiesced in years past…oh well.
The Minneapolis Marxists will dissolve the police force and install their Brownshirt thugs to do the “community policing” in its stead. And I think we all know how that’s going to turn out for those on the right side of the political spectrum.
Fun times.
Too Late! BLM Edmonton has a petition to defund the Edmonton Police Service.
No kidding? Good grief!!!!
Knowing Donnie Bike Lane and his gang of merry cretins, he’d do it.
Red Deer Shooting Center must be very happy.
Well along with Minn City council disbanding the police dept., and in particular , that they view certain citizens privileged for receiving police for a 911 call.
I think the Minn City council should be convinced that “private security” is a privilege, and a law should be passed to outlaw citizens from purchasing the services of a private security company, also revoke all permits and licences for private security within the boundaries of Minneapolis,,, including of course celebrities and reporters/journos that work for national media outlets when they come to Minn.(like Alisyn Camerota)
I’ll guarantee the police gets replaced with the Department of Vice & Virtue aka Antifa to prosecute all the microaggressions.
911 operator: Don’t worry, your community safety coordinator is currently imagining a solution for you.
Actually, starting at 9am if could call back then. Perhaps you could start a fire, the FD hasn’t been defunded yet for racism.
It’s fun watching Dems implode on this utterly bankrupt idea which makes open borders and climate change look libertarian.
All that’s left is for basement Joe to utter “defund police,” the shot in the foot heard around the world. Will he? Can he resist?
The Democrat party is controlled by Todays & Tomorrows Street People….The Rioting & looting will continue until they are all dead…..Communism has consequences that only the living will see….
What possible role can any of these demonstrators/ Rioters play in Society….They are flat-liners who will be living on the streets of the Democrat shit-hole cities… But they will have such good feelings….Yep! providing cover for Violence always works out….They are the descendants of the 1960’s who drugged out & checked out… California here they come!
JMHO
Related news: CBC this morning explained, as best they dared, how Camden, New Jersey, allegedly got rid of their police department, blazing a trail for America to follow.
They didn’t.
The city council just locked out the police union representing its experienced and professional (mostly white) police force, and replaced Camden’s finest with scabs recruited from the “community” and given the best sensitivity training whitey’s money could buy.
Reported crime rates plunged, we are assured. This, of course, only meant that the scabs left law enforcement to the local gangs, and no longer even bothered picking up dead thugs for disposal, never mind trying to figure out who shot them. No body, no murder.
When the facts do not suit the narrative, Camden’s thug-lovers got rid of the facts—as leftists and globalists always do.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/police-reform-ideas-united-states-george-floyd-1.5601990
If laws are not enforced, then statistically no laws were broken.
In the “life imitates art” department, here are some coming attractions.

This MillennialMillie Y/Tube gives a lot more background to the background of the, ‘peaceful protests’.
I know, I know it is connected to InfoWars – nevertheless it is very apropos.
https://youtu.be/xfsuKCgwDpo (might have to copy and paste)
What a spectacular opportunity to transform some or most of this city council & mayor to the Republican brand.
Or with members of the police union, until that can be arranged.
Post an armed cop at each polling station, and Minneapolis will turn blood-red in the best possible sense of the word. Minneapolitans will finally feel free to vote their conscience, viz. for the rule of law. Thugs and ballot-box stuffers not already sitting in jail awaiting trial will stay home, making a big show of “boycotting” an election they can’t rig.
Well, this seems like a really good way to bump up death statistics all around. At the same time as driving down property values and driving up insurance costs, if anyone could actually get insured in such a situation.
Well if there are no cops there are no liabilities for self defense.
I think you are seeing the result of catch and release court and punishment. When the police arrest someone for a property crime there is no action by the courts. Eventually you get so fed up that all you can do is tell the public there is no point in enforcing certain laws because the system doesn’t back them up.
So, perhaps you need to look at the rest of the system that the “progressives” have screwed up completely but letting petty criminals off the hook. All the effort to arrest, book, hold in a cell, etc. wasted. Look at New York City and the no bail crap. Look at the progs releasing criminals because they might get the covid in jail, while they threaten to put you in jail if you open your business. Sure, blame the guy at the pointy end who can see that nothing they do will change things.
As I have said in the past, if you don’t kill your enemies they will kill you.
Considering the fact that you can get a Pizza delivered before you can get a cop to attend the crime scene, we might be better off with vigilantee justice anyway! As was astutely noted above, if you defund and disband the police, then throw out all the legal statutes and law stuff along with all the lawyers, then there are no laws left to be broken anyway! Then you spread the razor wire around your house, arm up and take turns sleeping, we will then have achieved nirvana….. right?
Why aren’t these loser Democrat celebrities and leaders organizing work groups of volunteers to go to the black neighborhoods to help clean up and rebuild?
They seem to have plenty of time to march up and down the streets with signs and banners.
Instead of kneeling symbolically why aren’t they literally getting down on their hands and knees with a scrub brush and cleaning up the mess that their Democrat comrades made?
They walk right by the destroyed businesses and homes howling their ‘Black Lives Matter’ nonsense while the poor black store owner or home owner is cleaning up the smashed up mess that their fellow travelers created.
Why don’t they put down their stupid virtue signalling sign and spray paint and help the black locals clean up and rebuild?
They’re right there.
Translation into street language.
911: “If you are Black you can call no one. There is no one in government who will help. Its the same for white folks but the privileged elites have alternatives.”
So she is assuming the person breaking in is black…isn’t that racist
What does one do if it is a white person breaking in?
Should there be different emergency numbers to call depending on the race of the offender?
Minneapolis is a petri dish, showing all and sundry what will happen in Democrat-run cities if their citizens don’t smarten up and vote in their best interests.
